With six kids, birthday and Christmas gift-giving potential can be a bit overwhelming. I am always searching for great consumable gifts for kids. Therefore, I fell in love with these all natural baking mixes with organic ingredients from Scratch & Grain Baking Co!

I was lucky enough to taste-test two of their cookie kits, the gluten-free Chocolate Truffle cookieand the good old-fashioned Chocolate Chip. Evangeline and I are home by ourselves during the school week and we are always baking yummy snacks for when her sisters come home from school. She is my adorable kitchen helper and these kits made for a quick, easy, baking experience!

The only added ingredients we needed from the kitchen were butter and eggs!

As I read the instructions aloud to Evangeline, she would grab the number ingredient we needed for each step. Not only were we having fun baking together, but it was a learning experience as well!

We followed the instructions and then Eva went to work mixing the cookies. No need for a big stand mixer. A wooden spoon and tiny hands were enough to mix up these delicious chocolatey cookies! Then, into the oven for about 12-13 minutes!

Each box made 12 cookies. With both boxes baked, we had two dozen warm cookies for our after school snack! The taste-testing confirmed they were both delicious! The girls preferred the Chocolate Chipbut my favorite were thegluten-free Chocolate Truffle cookies.
